Holy christ, some genuinely terrible and childish people in this topic.


So insecure. 'He didn't accomplish anything, wah wah wah, I weigh more, wah wah wah'

Holy FUCK this is pathetic.

I agree we can't compare him to Arnold on various achievements, but only perhaps in the numbers of those he inspired within his generation.

I'd love to be structured and built like Zyzz, but I'd MUCH rather be built like Arnold in his prime.

Wouldn't that be zyzz plus some weight? (and a bit taller)

You might be right.
But of course potential means nothing until achieved.

True, but everyone has to start somewhere.

Cool story, bro.

I enjoy how some people, rather than just admit he accomplished a lot but that the things he did don't necessarily appeal to them, instead do everything they can to trivialize his success at such a young age.

How old are all of you, and what have you all done that is attention-worthy?


I don't deny that he accomplished a lot by his own standards. I just don't think the comparisons to Arnold were justified.

As I said, good for him. He led the life he wanted to. He fulfilled his own definition of success.


I think the issue with Arnold is that most of the younger generation can't relate to him. He had a fantastic body, but let's face it, none of us can ever even come close to what he achieved. The Zyzz character is something that most introverts sitting in front of a computer can relate. If you have ever read one of Arnolds books, he was literally born looking awesome, and was sleeping with women at the age of 16.

I just don't see how anyone can actually relate to Arnold now a days.


That's a fair point about Arnold. It's probably why he never seemed to have any self-doubt.

How do you think people of the younger generation relate to Zyzz? Serious question. I'm 21, and I don't relate to him. I fully acknowledge that I may be an atypical 21 year old in some respects, so perhaps that's why I don't see it.

True, but that's not what I was saying. For all I know, Zyzz reached his goal of how he envisioned himself to look. If so, mission accomplished.

Exactly! I just don't think his death was a tragedy. I mean I feel horrible for his family and friends. But you can only play with fire so many times before you get burned.

Speaking strictly about myself, Muscle is like horsepower or money; there is never enough.
